Authentication with WebdriverIO

Authentication can be done either with a username and password or with an accessKey.

The username and password or accessKey can either be passed as part of the capabilities.

Since WebDriverIO version 7.0.0, authentication is possible with access key only

        .....
    }],
...
}

For accessKey, use the following convention:

wdio.conf.js

        'experitest:accessKey' : <accessKey>,
        .....
    }],
